Setup
Host
- interserver.net: hellman.deadmandao.com
- namecheap.com: CNAME meet.bobbushman.com -> hellman.deadmandao.com
- Apache Note: "Nginx/Apache: As we prefer the usage of Nginx as webserver, the installer checks first for the presence of Nginx and then for Apache." - Jitsi
- IE: nginx is not required. (though Apache is second-class, so maybe it won't be automatic)

Trying to debug.
$ sudo apt install jitsi-meet
dependency error, jits-meet-prosody, jitsi-meet-turnserver
$ sudo apt install jitsi-meet-prosody
dependency error prosody
$ sudo apt install prosody
Seems to have worked
$ sudo apt install jitsi-meet-prosody
dependency error prosody, 0.11.7 versus 0.11.2
Checked one of my Lightsail boxes, running Debian 11, it has a newer version of Prosody. Going to try lighting up on there.
Actually, trying to upgrade my interserver box to Deb 11 first.
$ sudo emacs /etc/apt/sources.list # change buster to bullseye
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt upgrade
$ sudo apt full-upgrade
$ sudo apt autoremove
Install Jitsi
$ sudo apt install jitsi-meet
Success!
Or maybe not.
Certificate error going to https://meet.bobbushman.com/
different errors on Firefox and Chromium
$ sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx
Fixed a few things, but haven't gotten the main problem yet.
